If it wasn't for Ron Wellman, we wouldn't have OGBoards.

I've heard Ronny is President in waiting as everyone knows only a man can really do that job. Wake has even thrown it a lifetime supply of Neutrogena products and bike helmets to sweeten the deal!

Q'A-Ron !!

 

[WRS]

Thank you Ron !

We also have Ron to thank for the coach's shows not taking callers anymore. Caldwell had to sit there for years taking tough calls, but Ron's little buddy Jeffrey couldn't handle it, so they stopped it.

He definitely deserves to do so with all he’s accomplished for the university. He invented Opening The Gate and the motorcycle.

Can you imagine Ron sitting in a conference room saying, "You know what we really need to get the people going? A Harley."

Soon to be HOF Ron Wellman, by the way.

*In all seriousness, he belongs there. He clearly failed the basketball program with some inexplicable hires - especially [Redacted], but he was a net positive for the University and the Athletic Department.

The "...YOU HAVE A GOOD NIGHT..... BUDDY!" might have been the highlight of those dark times. If Wellman is acknowledged at a game, I'll give him a golf clap and that's about it. We're still digging out of the basketball destruction.

The only thing I would criticize Wellman for is not building a smaller arena when we had the chance. Ultimately, that is what led to the rocky times for the basketball program.

Fuck you Ron!1!

 

[CheesePritchard]

Also, thank you Ron Wellman for surrounding yourself with competent Associate ADs.

If Monken ever leaves Army, then Buddie will be ready with a notecard of coach's names. Wellman taught him that.

 

[BirdinBama]

Yeah, thanks a bunch, Ron, for fucking up our flagship sport! And for being such a shithead about it!!!!

 

[pinochadeac]

Oh heavens yes!

The greatest thing that Ron Wellman ever did at Wake was ask Mike Buddie find a football coach.

DR clone!!

Fair point. But he could have named Wes Miller as walk-on/head coach and the rest would have taken care of itself.

I give Ron credit for at least letting his ego get out of the way so others could decide to hire Clawson instead of Lembo. Ron didn't want Clawson.

Damn, I opened this thread hoping to read that he died. I know I'm not the only one.

Weak shit
